Life felt grey and daunting. Then lightened up when yesterday when Maria, one of our longterm Members, rang to explain she had made a donation towards biscuits and bunch daffodils for the team. We all felt the love, and the day felt easier immediately.

#itsnotok that so many children are sexually exploited. They are particularly vulnerable to sexual abuse within families. Forthcoming holidays create greater access from those who want to abuse children. Open your eyes. Adult survivors know the reality of the harm caused.

As a victim of rape as a child, I am shocked that World&Dutch Olympic Committees thought it acceptable to include a convicted rapist at the games. Athletes who take steroids can be banned for life, but apparently not those who when age 19 rape a 12 Yr old. #ParisOlympics2024

Archbishop Justin Welby is a disgrace and indicative of all that is wrong with CofE and other faith communities. Shows how morally corrupt he is and he also needs to be ejected from House of Lords....

#itsnotok2025 to label our childhood experiences as 'historic'. They r not. It is non-recent. As adult survivors of rape, sexual exploitation, sexual assault during our childhood/teens we continue to live with the legacy of trauma. healthwatchessex.org.uk/trauma/ Pls download&use card.

A significant moment in the campaign for victims of sexual abuse during childhood. Many of those who fought this fight for justice are no longer with us. The emotional AND physical impact of csa shortens life expectancy. theguardian.com/law/2025/feb/0…

Being believed and emotionally supported are key issues for victim/survivors of rape and sexual abuse. We at CIS'ters recommend SARCs, especially if the event you experienced is recent... youtu.be/Et6Ja2eCW6E?si…
